Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Halterung für einen Kühler nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1.The invention relates to a holder for a cooler according to the preamble of claim 1.

Kühler für Kraftfahrzeuge werden aus Gründen der Durchströmung dicht hinter Verkleidungsteilen der Karosserie angebracht, so daß schon bei leichten Verformungen dieser Verkleidungsteile, wie sie z.B. bei einem Auffahrunfall vorkommen, der Kühler in Mitleidenschaft gezogen wird. Durch die Elastizität der Verkleidungsteile können diese unter Umständen aufgrund ihrer elastischen Eigenschaften ohne bleibende Verformungen in ihre Ausgangslage zurückfedern. Bei Ölkühlern, die in der Regel unterhalb des Stoßfängers angebracht und dadurch häufig leichteren Kontakten mit Bordsteinen und ähnlichem ausgesetzt sind, besteht hierdurch eine Möglichkeit der Beschädigung.Radiators for motor vehicles are mounted just behind the body panels for reasons of flow, so that even with slight deformations of these panel parts, as e.g. occur in a rear-end collision that affects the radiator. Due to the elasticity of the cladding parts, due to their elastic properties, they can spring back into their starting position without permanent deformation. In oil coolers, which are usually attached below the bumper and are therefore often exposed to lighter contacts with curbs and the like, there is a possibility of damage as a result.

Aus der DE-A 34 46 752 ist eine Halterung für einen Ölkühler eines Kraftfahrzeuges bekannt, der um eine quer zur Fahrtrichtung angeordnete Achse schwenkbar gelagert ist und im unteren Bereich mittels einer Gummilasche fahrzeugfest gehalten wird. Nachteilig hierbei ist, daß für diese Halterung mehrere fahrzeugfeste Befestigungspunkte benötigt werden und die Gummilasche zudem den Kühler bei einem Auffahrunfall und dgl. nicht sofort freigibt, sondern erst ab einer bestimmten, unter anderem von der Temperatur und dem Alterungszustands des Gummis abhängigen Kraft auf den Kühler reißt und ersetzt werden muß.From DE-A 34 46 752 a holder for an oil cooler of a motor vehicle is known, which is pivotally mounted about an axis arranged transversely to the direction of travel and is held in the lower area by means of a rubber strap fixed to the vehicle. The disadvantage here is that several vehicle-fixed fastening points are required for this holder and the rubber strap also does not immediately release the radiator in a rear-end collision and the like, but only from a certain force on the radiator, which depends, among other things, on the temperature and the aging condition of the rubber tears and must be replaced.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine Halterung der genannten Gattung zu schaffen, die sicherstellt, daß der Kühler bei einem Aufprall der Verkleidung bzw. des Stoßfängers unbeschädigt und funktionsfähig bleibt.The object of the invention is to provide a bracket of the type mentioned, which ensures that the radiator remains undamaged and functional in the event of an impact of the trim or the bumper.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Weitere, die Erfindung ausgestaltende Merkmale sind in den Unteransprüchen enthalten.According to the invention, this object is achieved by the features of claim 1. Further features embodying the invention are contained in the subclaims.

Die erfindungsgemäße Halterung wird in vorteilhafter Weise nur über eine durch zwei Lager gebildete Schwenkachse mit dem Fahrzeug verbunden. So wird neben den beiden Befestigungspunkten der Schwenkachse kein weiterer Befestigungspunkt benötigt und damit der Bauaufwand verringert. Der Kühler ist in den Konsolen formschlüssig gelagert und diese Konsolen werden durch Federn in ihrer Arbeitsstellung gehalten. Hierdurch verringert sich der Montageaufwand (größere Toleranzen, kein Ausrichten) und die Zahl der Verbindungsstellen, die sich beispielsweise durch Vibrationen unbeabsichtigt lösen können. Bei einem Aufprall wird der Kühler elastisch und gleichmäßig gegen die Federkraft ausgelenkt. Dadurch werden Beschädigungen des Kühlers infolge von Kraftspitzen, die beispielsweise beim Reißen einer Gummilasche auftreten, vermieden.The holder according to the invention is advantageously connected to the vehicle only via a pivot axis formed by two bearings. In addition to the two attachment points of the swivel axis, no additional attachment point is required and the construction effort is thus reduced. The cooler is positively mounted in the brackets and these brackets are held in their working position by springs. This reduces the assembly effort (larger tolerances, no alignment) and the number of connection points, which can be unintentionally loosened by vibrations, for example. In the event of an impact, the cooler is deflected elastically and evenly against the spring force. Damage to the cooler due to force peaks, which occur, for example, when a rubber strap is torn, is avoided.

In der Zeichnung wird ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung gezeigt, das nachstehend näher beschrieben ist.In the drawing, an embodiment of the invention is shown, which is described in more detail below.

eine Ansicht in Blickrichtung X der Fig. 2.3 shows a view in viewing direction X of FIG. 2.

In Fig. 1 ist ein Kraftfahrzeug 1 dargestellt, das ein elastisches Verkleidungsteil 2 umfaßt, hinter dem der Ölkühler 3 befestigt ist.In Fig. 1, a motor vehicle 1 is shown, which comprises an elastic trim part 2, behind which the oil cooler 3 is attached.

In Fig. 2 ist ein unterer Querträger 4 des Kraftfahrzeuges 1 mit einem daran befestigten Lagerbock 5 zu erkennen, an dem ein oberer Schenkel eines L-förmigen Lagerwinkels 6 angeschraubt ist. Im unteren Schenkel des Lagerwinkels 6 sitzt in einer kreisförmigen Ausnehmung eine Gummibuchse 7, die in ihrer Bohrung ein mit einer Konsole 8 verschweißtes zylindrisches Rohrstück 9 aufnimmt. Die Gummibuchse 7 und das Rohrstück 8 bilden gemeinsam ein Schwenklager 10, dessen Längsachse parallel zum Querträger 4 verläuft. Die Konsole 8 wird durch ein L-förmiges Blechprofil gebildet. Ein erster Schenkel des Profiles verläuft parallel zum Lagerwinkel 6 und ein zweiter Schenkel 21 des Profiles ist zum ersten Schenkel abgewinkelt und stützt den Kühler rückseitig ab.In Fig. 2 a lower cross member 4 of the motor vehicle 1 can be seen with an attached bracket 5 to which an upper leg of an L-shaped bearing bracket 6 is screwed. In the lower leg of the bearing bracket 6 sits in a circular recess a rubber bushing 7, which receives a cylindrical tube piece 9 welded to a bracket 8 in its bore. The rubber bushing 7 and the pipe section 8 together form a pivot bearing 10, the longitudinal axis of which runs parallel to the cross member 4. The console 8 is formed by an L-shaped sheet profile. A first leg of the profile runs parallel to the bearing bracket 6 and a second leg 21 of the profile is angled to the first leg and supports the cooler from the rear.

Die Halterung für den Ölkühler 3 besteht im wesentlichen aus den zwei Konsolen 8, die zwischen den Lagerwinkeln 6 angeordnet sind, wobei die Schenkel 21 der Konsolen 8 gegeneinandergerichtet sind.The holder for the oil cooler 3 consists essentially of the two brackets 8, which are arranged between the bearing brackets 6, the legs 21 of the brackets 8 being directed towards one another.

Ein Kühlergehäuse 11 beinhaltet an seinen beiden Längsseiten je zwei übereinanderliegende Zapfen 12 und 12a, über die das Kühlergehäuse 11 in die Konsolen 8 eingehängt ist. Ein erster Zapfen 12 wird von einer Bohrung eines zylindrischen Rohrstücks 9 und der zweite Zapfen 12a von einer Gummibuchse 13, die in einer Bohrung der Konsole 8 sitzt, aufgenommen.A cooler housing 11 contains on its two longitudinal sides two superposed pins 12 and 12a, via which the cooler housing 11 is suspended in the brackets 8. A first pin 12 is received by a bore of a cylindrical pipe section 9 and the second pin 12a by a rubber bushing 13, which is seated in a bore of the bracket 8.

In der Seitenansicht (Fig. 3) ist eine Feder 14 dargestellt, die einerseits an einer vorkragenden Lasche 15 des Lagerbocks 5 und andererseits z. B. an einer Lasche 16 der Konsole 8 angelenkt ist. Diese Lasche 16 ist Bestandteil der Konsole 8 und ist gegenüber dem abgewinkelten Schenkel 21 rechtwinkelig nach außen gebogen.In the side view (Fig. 3), a spring 14 is shown, the one hand on a projecting tab 15 of the bearing block 5 and the other z. B. is hinged to a tab 16 of the console 8. This tab 16 is part of the console 8 and is bent outwards at right angles to the angled leg 21.

Die Feder 14 ist vorgespannt und verschwenkt den Kühler 3 in Fahrtrichtung F um eine aus den Lagern 10 gebildete Schwenkachse 17. Über eine Lasche 18 am ersten Schenkel der Konsole 8 wird die durch die Feder 14 ausgelöste Drehbewegung in Pfeilrichtung 23 an einem Anschlag 19 des Lagerwinkels 6 abgestützt.The spring 14 is preloaded and pivots the cooler 3 in the direction of travel F about a pivot axis 17 formed by the bearings 10. The rotary movement triggered by the spring 14 in the direction of arrow 23 at a stop 19 of the bearing angle is triggered by a tab 18 on the first leg of the bracket 8 6 supported.

Nicht dargestellt ist die flexible Verbindung des Kühlergehäuses 11 über zwei Verbindungsleitungen mit dem Motor.The flexible connection of the radiator housing 11 to the engine via two connecting lines is not shown.

Die Feder 14 ist im dargestellten Beispiel vorzugsweise als Spiralzugfeder ausgebildet; jedoch können auch andere elastische Elemente verwendet werden. Werden diese auf der dem Anschlag 19 entgegengesetzten Seite zwischen Konsole 8 und Lagerbock 5 angebracht, so können auch Druckelemente eingesetzt werden.In the example shown, the spring 14 is preferably designed as a spiral tension spring; however, other elastic elements can also be used. If these are mounted on the side opposite the stop 19 between the console 8 and the bearing block 5, then pressure elements can also be used.

In der Grundposition G schwenken die Federn 14 die Konsolen 8 mit dem Kühler 3 um die Drehachse 17 in Fahrtrichtung F gegen die Anschläge 19 und halten die Konsolen 8 dort durch die Vorspannkraft der Federn 14.In the basic position G, the springs 14 pivot the brackets 8 with the cooler 3 about the axis of rotation 17 in the direction of travel F against the stops 19 and hold the brackets 8 there by the biasing force of the springs 14.

Im Falle eines Aufpralles des elastischen Verkleidungsteiles 2 auf einen festen Gegenstand wird dieses verformt. Ist die Verformung so groß geworden, daß das elastische Verkleidungsteil 2 den Ölkühler 3 berührt, wird dieser gegen die Vorspannung der Feder 14 aus der Grundposition G in Verformungsrichtung bis in eine Ausweichposition A verschwenkt. Die dazu notwendige Kraft entspricht zunächst der Vorspannkraft der Feder 14 und nimmt mit zunehmender Auslenkung stetig zu. Nach dem Aufprall federt das elastische Verkleidungsteil 2 in seine Ausgangslage zurück. Gleichzeitig schwenkt die Feder 14 den Ölkühler 3 wieder in seine Grundposition G. Wenn die Verformung des Verkleidungsteiles 2 so groß ist, daß eine bleibende Verformung eintritt, so verbleibt der Kühler 3 in der Ausweichposition A und kann nach dem Auswechseln des deformierten Verkleidungsteiles wieder in seine Grundposition verschwenkt werden.In the event of an impact of the elastic covering part 2 on a solid object, this is deformed. Has the deformation become so big that the elastic covering part 2 touches the oil cooler 3, this is pivoted against the bias of the spring 14 from the basic position G in the direction of deformation to an evasive position A. The force required for this initially corresponds to the biasing force of the spring 14 and increases steadily with increasing deflection. After the impact, the elastic covering part 2 springs back into its starting position. At the same time, the spring 14 swivels the oil cooler 3 back into its basic position G. If the deformation of the trim part 2 is so great that permanent deformation occurs, the cooler 3 remains in the avoidance position A and can be returned to it after the deformed trim part has been replaced Basic position can be pivoted.
